Unheard Voices


They are over millions
But they are often unheard
They are but simple individuals
Trying to make their lives work.

They wander amidst the busy crowd
Wishing for luck that is yet to come
They are often rejected by society
Thinking they are just another liability.

In their own little ways
They try to find means;
But in surviving this life's battle
They still never had felt their victory.

Despite their life situation
They still seek for God's attention
Holding onto their prayers
Waiting for them to be heard.

Ghastly Otherwise


I'm running through the field
With butterflies, flowers and seeds
I smile to see the blue sky
So clear, so bright and so high.

With whisper that caress
Touching my skin so breathlessly
Water flows like unruffled cave
With sparkling crystals dancing with the wave.

I walk amid the bare forest
Fill my hands with fruits extremely fresh
I gaze and hear the song of the birds
Like a lullaby that tingles my nerve.

Everything is so exquisite
But now it's the opposite
For I realized I was just dreaming
Of what the mendacious society brings.

Yesterday everything was fine
But now, everything should be refined
Yesterday was clear and wise
But now, it is just ghastly otherwise.

Cold Christmas


Christmas reminds me of someone;
Someone special that I long to see
The cold breeze makes me ponder
Thinking of him leaves me wonder.

Thousands of questions bugs my mind
Seems like the answers are hard to find
Isn't holiday season a time to be happy?
But why is it I am feeling so lonely?

We were together on Christmas day;
And I thought it would last forever
I don't want to end it over
Yet the relationship didn't last any longer.

Christmas marks my new beginning,
A time to search for its true meaning...
Though he was once my bitter past,
I still hope that he would be my last.

DES' Life, I Rule


Live life to the fullest
And learn to stand on its hard test.
Live life with faith
And learn to hold the struggles tight.

Live life as a journey
And learn to take the right path on its valley.
Live life like a butterfly
And learn to exercise your freedom correctly.
Live life in its divinity
And learn to take control of your uncertainty.
Live life with simplicity
And learn to understand its complexity.
Live life based on principles of love
And learn to follow the examples from above.

Learn how to die, to learn how to live!

His Little Miss Moon ♥

I love the way you touch my hair
I love the way you touch my hand as we ride on a bus
I love the way you stare at me
I love it when I always caught you staring at me when I am not looking,
I love the way you wipe my face when you see
               a drop of sweat appearing in my face.

I love it when you kiss me in the cheeks when I get upset
I love the way when you hold me when I'm angry at you
I love the way you smell my hair when I fall asleep on your shoulder
I love the way you kiss my hand, as if I was special.

I love the way when you pinch my nose when I'm always trying to crinkle my nose
I love the way when you hug me when you can
I love it when you always accompany me to watch flicks
I love it when you hold my arm and let me calm down when I'm panicking.

I never expected I will meet someone like you
I maybe blinded 'coz you're there for a long time
Sorry for letting you gone unnoticed
But, I love you, more than I love anyone
You always make my name sound so special,
But my favorite one is when you called me,
"Miss Tur-og" (My Moon)

Thou Shall Not Tell A Lie

"Our economy is blooming!"
A line I find no offense
But also sort of bit nonsense
And an act of self-defense.

There's nothing wrong to dream
But to tell a lie is a grim
There's no chance of concealing the truth
For behind the bars of poverty we are caught.

As peso and dollars keep rolling
Like angry flash of thunder and lightning
I still keep on seeking and waiting
For the visibility of the uttered word,
"Our economy is blooming!"

Theology classes taught me the 8th commandment
Hammering our heads with enlightenment
When I heard that line
I just made a deep sigh
For my professor once said,
"Thou shall not tell a lie."

Taking The Next Step

When I was a child
I knew nothing but cry
I was always cuddled by my mother
And life's problem for me wasn't a big matter.

As I entered school
I was taught about things that I should know
Slowly I began to mature and grow
And life for me started to shine and grow.

Soon when I finish my studies
I would be entering into a new world
New principles in life will I take hold
I knew nothing of what the future is to unfold.

Now, as I live in a world of uncertainty
I begin to have doubts of my ability
Am I really ready to take the next step?
Or will I allow others to go ahead?

KABATAAN: Naglalahong Pag-asa Ng Bayan

Sa aking paglaki,
Tinuring kong pangalawang tirahan ang paaralan
Tahanang walang makakapantay sa aking natututunan
Dito ako pinasok ng aking mga butihing magulang
Para matutong bumasa, sumulat at gumalang.

Ngunit paano mga katulad kong kabataan
Na 'di naranasan tumapak sa paaralan
Ano nang mangyayari sa kanilang kinabukasan
Kung lagi lang silang nakatambay sa daan?

Mga nakikita ko sa lansangan
Ka-edad kung batang matanda na kung tignan
At ako'y naaawa tuwing sila'y aking tinititigan
Di nakapag-aral dahil sa kahirapan.

At ng dahil sa hirap ng buhay
Natutuksong gumawa ng masama ang kabataan
Tulad ng pagnanakaw at pagsisira ng ari-arian
At 'di nila sinasadya, dahil ito'y kailangan.

Paano lulutasin ang mga problema nating hinaharap
Kung ang ating mga pinuno ay walang pakialam sa paghihirap
Palaging pangako ang mga salitang binibitawan
Tuwing eleksyon dahil boto natin ang kailangan.

Ano na ang nangyayari sa ating bayan?
Kung ganito ang katulad kong mga kabataan?
At paano narin ang kasabihang,
"Ang kabataan ang pag-asa ng bayan?"

I Want To Be

I want to be a writer
My own stories I will offer
To inspire others in their life
And change wrong things to right.

I want to be a painter
Paint the town
And be good as Renato is.

I want to be a great chef
Make food for good health
For me and for my three siblings
And for mom who desperately cooked for us.

I want to be a singing sensation
Like my sister while she take a bath
Like the gays during every fiesta
Like the priests during the Misa.

I want to save the world like Darna
Kill the fire that destroyed my cousins' house
Punish those corrupt policemen
Hunt the thief who rubbed us.

I want to be a teacher
Help kids with their lessons
And help all parents for them to be able
To continue sending their kids to school.

I want to be an architect
A dream  made out of sticks
Build homes that will protect
The lives of all rejects.

I have still so many dreams
But where's Accounting, I haven't mention to;
I know I can make it come true.

Thank You

Thanks to those who hated me,
you made me stronger.

Thanks to those who loved me,
you made my heart go fonder.

Thanks to those who cared,
you made me feel important.

Thanks to those who entered into my life,
you made who I am today.

Thanks to those who left,
you showed me that nothing lasts forever.

Thanks to those who stayed,
you showed me true friendship.

Thanks to those who listened,
you made me like I was worth it.


Read My Mind


If you could ever read my mind
I don't know what I'd do.
For all the things I think about
would all be known to you.

You would know just how I feel
when you're far away from me.
And what it is that makes me think
and how I'd like to be.

I could never hide my thoughts
and maybe that's not good.
'Cause sometimes when I'm mad at you
I don't act the way I should.

Sometimes knowing what I think
would strip me of my pride.
Then maybe you would love me less
and not stay by my side.

So reading minds are for gypsies,
 
not for you my dear.
For every single thought I have
would make it all so clear
how much I think of you.

I Have 5 Fingers For A Reason

THUMB: to show the world I'm gonna be okay.
POINTER: to pick out my dearest family members.
MIDDLE: for those bitches who push me too far.
INDEX: for that special guy when the time is right.
PINKIE: For my best friend and the promises I'll never break.

ANTI-RH BILL AKO! THAT'S WHY I SAY LIFE IS SIMPLER THEN. Opinion counts! (: PLS. TAKE YOUR TIME, READ THIS...


Surely, the proposed law spreads around nice words such as responsibility, healthcare, freedom, choice, development, rights, equality, couples, etc. Yet, it is nothing but an attempt to remove God from our government and society.

When I told a friend that lines, he answered: "grabe naman kasi kayo, masyado kayong overreacting, masyado nyong ginagawang literal ang mga sciptures. sa sobrang pagkaliteral, yung mga sentiments na rinerelease nila, wala na sa lugar... hindi naman sa masyado kong crinicriticize pero you're going beyond limits... kung walang RH Bill, kaya bang pakainin ng simbahan lahat ng mga batang dadagdag sa listahan ng mahihirap sa buong Pilipinas? kaya ba nilang ipagamot? kaya nilang pag-aralin, as in lahat?"

Yeah, I know. It's really hard to reply to that, lalo na at opinyon nya yun. I just ask him, "don't you think the bill will legalized abortion?"

"Finance everyone's freedom to have sex responsibility. We can support RH Bill and implements parental responsibility and still be a good Catholic," he answered callously.

When it comes to this part, we started to have different views toward it. And it is always a constant reminder that, we should read first the entire proposed bill before giving reactions. As for my own opinion, not because I'm Catholic or because of what the scriptures tell us, I really can't accept the part wherein they give free condoms (to high school students) to those out of wedlock. "There's only two words much better than condom and pills for you (esp. the teens today) it's called wedding ring.

All of us for sure are pro-life! Maybe some can't because of poverty and great responsibility. Come to think of it, the bill cannot be pro-life because of many sections in the bill that promote harm than health, promote injustice rather that a greater good, and do not respect the solemn union of spouses in marriage. I just realized that being an anti means PRO-QUALITY LIFE.

No, I'm not saying that we want changes but we're not open to it. As long as it's for the good of entire human kind, why not?

Please before acting, reflect on it: the bill will just induce sexual gratification on teen. I agree that married couples should be introduced with some options but I think, the teens should be taught SELF- CONTROL. Many teen would engage in casual sex or premarital sex if the part of the bill that teaches birth control on teens wouldn't be amended.

“What is needed, among other things, are the proper education of couples with regards to the value of marriage, spousal relationship, responsible parenthood and the use of natural family planning methods that do not have any harmful side-effects, have a higher success rate than artificial means, and foster deeper communication, care and respect between couples." IT'S CALLED DISCIPLINE.

Don't used the reason that our country are overpopulated. NO, WE'RE NOT OVERPOPULATED, WE'RE NOT JUST PROPERLY DISTRIBUTED. 

CONDOMS CAN PREVENT DISEASE AND UNPLANNED PREGNANCY. And let’s face it, sex is more fun when you’re not worried about getting pregnant or getting an STD. “Condom is not the solution to our problems. It does not even make the people responsible.” As what Pabillo said, “It’s like you can do whatever you want because you’re ‘protected’ anyway. But does it really protect you? Again, sexual act outside marriage is wrong."

Don't be too advance-thinker, are you 100% sure it will end poverty? Do you really think that would be the best solution? Right now, (when I say right now, I really mean NOW) we're all rich, we're living a God-nurtured country. Maybe most people used it the wrong way or they just don't use it at all.

P.S. focus on addressing the causes of mortality rates, insufficient nutrition, safe water and a cleaner environment instead (:


And then let's add a disclaimer:
This note is subject to clarification or withdrawal. It implies no promise by the wisher to actually implement the wishes and no responsibility for any unintended emotional stress this note may bring.
WALANG MAHIRAP, KUNG MARUNONG TAYONG LAHAT NG SALITANG "SHARE"!

OUR PRESIDENT’S BURDEN

Can’t sleep at night
I have lot of things to do
How I wish I can make use of voodoo.

So many meetings and decisions to make
For my country to prosper
And 88.57 million people at stake.

I made some mistakes
please bear with me
Before I fall into pieces and plea.

If there’s no such thing as to forgive and forget
Then why lovers say it’s sweeter the second time around
So let me take it over and forget about my bank account
But I can’t force everyone to release the anger away
And all I can do is to wait for my doomsday.

I love my country and my people too
So let me serve you till my term ends
And give me a chance to prove what I meant.

Sweetest Greeting

I am miles away from you
A reality I cannot undo
Despite the distance, I still love you
The only truth I can’t undo.
Without you seem to be plain Christmas
Shedding tears behind the mask
I’m longing for your presence
Because yuletide without you is a nonsense.
Christmas Carols are up in the air
But my ears do not seem to care
Santa is calling my name
But I am like numb and insane.
I am here waiting for you to come
Until the moon goes up and the sun goes down
The greatest gift I want to receive is YOU
The sweetes greeting I want to hear is “I LOVE YOU!”

CHERISHED MOMENTS

Though you love me, love is only half
Of life, and sacrifice the other part;
This unsubstantial ecstasy that shakes us now
Must finally destroy the heart
Unless it be preserved in quietness,
And so becomes a winged reward that moves
Like fate within the unexcited warm
Until it shapes it utterance and proves
The dullest hour is a part of love;
And when, at last, we scale the height that aches
Within our patient strength, we will become
A vast shore upon which a vast sea breaks.

DO WE NEED A SUPER HERO?

It’s not bad to believe some fantasies
And imitate one but don’t try to jump on high seas
A simple bravery to face calamities
Will be prefect to save some refugees.
Spiderman, Batman, Catwoman and the Incredibles (also Ben10: my favorite)
We don’t need them, if someone here will show love and respect.
Saving the world is not as hard as it sounds
All it needed was a courageous man
Who’s willing to be Superman.
If we only use our mind
All of us can be a hero in our own land
And we can recover the world the way it is
before global warming end us up.
